Overview

Use gh to locate failing PR checks, fetch GitHub Actions logs for actionable failures, summarize the failures, and implement fixes.

Inputs

• repo: path inside the repo (default .)
• pr: PR number or URL (optional; defaults to current branch PR)
• gh authentication for the repo host

Quick start

• python3 "<path-to-skill>/scripts/inspect_pr_checks.py" --repo "." --pr "<number-or-url>"
• Add --json if you want machine-friendly output for summarization.

Workflow

1. Verify gh authentication.
   • Run gh auth status in the repo.
   • If unauthenticated, ask the user to run gh auth login (ensuring repo + workflow scopes) before proceeding.
2. Resolve the PR.
   • Prefer the current branch PR: gh pr view --json number,url.
   • If the user provides a PR number or URL, use that directly.
3. Inspect failing checks (GitHub Actions only).
   • Preferred: run the bundled script (handles gh field drift and job-log fallbacks):
     • python3 "<path-to-skill>/scripts/inspect_pr_checks.py" --repo "." --pr "<number-or-url>"
     • Add --json for machine-friendly output.
   • Manual fallback:
     • gh pr checks <pr> --json name,state,bucket,link,startedAt,completedAt,workflow
       • If a field is rejected, rerun with the available fields reported by gh.
     • For each failing check, extract the run id from detailsUrl and run:
       • gh run view <run_id> --json name,workflowName,conclusion,status,url,event,headBranch,headSha
       • gh run view <run_id> --log
     • If the run log says it is still in progress, fetch job logs directly:
       • gh api "/repos/<owner>/<repo>/actions/jobs/<job_id>/logs" > "<path>"
4. Scope non-GitHub Actions checks.
   • If detailsUrl is not a GitHub Actions run, label it as external and only report the URL.
   • Do not attempt Buildkite or other providers; keep the workflow lean.
5. Summarize failures.
   • Provide the failing check name, run URL (if any), and a concise log snippet.
   • Call out missing logs explicitly.
6. Create a plan.
   • Use the create-plan skill to draft a concise plan.
7. Implement plan.
   • Apply the plan, summarize diffs/tests, commit and push changes.
8. Recheck status.
   • After changes, re-run the relevant tests and gh pr checks to confirm.
   • If new or existing failures remain, repeat the workflow until CI passes
9. Summarize outcome.
   • Once CI checks pass, summarize the fix and confirm with the user before merging or proceeding to the next steps in their workflow.

Bundled Resources

<path-to-skill>/scripts/inspect_pr_checks.py

Fetch failing PR checks, pull GitHub Actions logs, and extract a failure snippet. Exits non-zero when failures remain so it can be used in automation.

Usage examples:

• python3 "<path-to-skill>/scripts/inspect_pr_checks.py" --repo "." --pr "123"
• python3 "<path-to-skill>/scripts/inspect_pr_checks.py" --repo "." --pr "https://github.com/org/repo/pull/123" --json
• python3 "<path-to-skill>/scripts/inspect_pr_checks.py" --repo "." --max-lines 200 --context 40
